Beliefs and Values

Statement of Faith:

WE BELIEVE…The Scriptures are inspired by God and declare His design and plan for mankind.

WE BELIEVE…There is only One True God–revealed in three persons…Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (commonly known as the Trinity).

WE BELIEVE…In the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ. As God’s son Jesus was both human and divine.

WE BELIEVE…though originally good, Man Willingly Fell to Sin–ushering evil and death, both physical and spiritual, into the world.

WE BELIEVE…Every Person Can Have Restored Fellowship with God through ‘Salvation’ (trusting Christ, through faith and repentance, to be our personal Savior).

WE BELIEVE… in Water Baptism by Immersion after repenting of one’s sins and receiving Christ’s gift of salvation, and Holy Communion as a symbolic remembrance of Christ’s suffering and death for our salvation.

WE BELIEVE…that the gifts of the spirit are still in operation today.

WE BELIEVE …Teen Challenge North Carolina Boys Academy as a para-church organization, is responsible to the great commission to save the lost, make disciples, and send them out.

About Corrective Discipline

Discipline at North Carolina Boys Academy is principle-minded and designed to teach a lesson, not punish. We do not participate in any form of corporal punishment, withholding food, nor physical restraint (other than in situations where the child may be an imminent threat to himself or others). Typical disciplinary tactics include the loss of some privileges or the addition of chores, or both, extra study assignments, etc. Discipline is corrective in nature to shape character and teach valuable lessons for life.
